  “I had severe pain in my jaw and ear when I was referred to Dr. Klein. He diagnosed my problem as TMJ and started to treat the situation right away. Within two months the pain had subsided, thanks to him and his staff. I would recommend anyone with my condition to Dr. Klein.”

  “I was having TMJ pain and I was seeing my dentist but nothing was working so I checked Angie’s list for someone who handled TMJ and found Dr. Klein office. His office is really close to my home so I thought I would call to make an appointment. My first visit I met with his staff and Dr. Klein. He spoke to me asking questions regarding my TMJ. His office did x rays of my bite guard in and out. Dr. Klein checked my TMJ joints and said they were very tight and yes he was right I am always in pain. I have been going 3 times a week for 4 weeks. Now 2 times a week for 4 weeks for PT on my TMJ joints which is helping me I have less pain. Dr. Klein also wrote scripts that help with pain and muscle spasms. I was never aware of all the treatments that can be done until I saw Dr. Klein and his staff. The staff that takes care of you are wonderful. The 2 girls [assistants] have been with Dr. Klein for years. They go into your mouth with [vinyl] gloves and massage both joints which is so relaxing. If you are having pain or jaw popping or headache’s this sure is the place to go to. I’m sure you will like his staff and the Doctor is wonderful.”

  “I’ve experienced TMJ symptoms (clicking/minor jaw pain/headaches) sporadically throughout my life but those symptoms became more persistent and got progressively worse over the last year or so. As the symptoms started to get worse and I was experiencing pain on a daily basis, I spoke with my dentist about it. He provided an appliance and suggestions to mitigate my symptoms but they all resulted in a dead end.Months went by and the pain seemed to grow exponentially. Everyday activities I used to take for granted like chewing, talking, and even yawning were a chore. I had no choice but to seek a specialist and Dr. Klein came highly recommended. The care that I’ve received from Dr. Klein and his team was second to none. Now just months after receiving my orthotic, I am virtually pain free and the clicking and headaches are no longer an issue. I feel like I have my life back and I cannot be more grateful!.”

  “I was referred to Dr. Klein to address my TMJ problem which was a result of a car accident. Not only am I pain free today, but I also fell I have made lifelong friends. Dr. Klein’s staff has the kindest, warmest, and most helpful individuals I have ever encountered. As far as Dr. Klein goes, I think he is the most competent, knowledgeable and compassionate doctor I have met in a long time. Never have I met a staff like theirs – they are all the best!.”

  “I went to a dentist, endodontist, oral surgeon, and neurologist for my tooth/facial pain. I was experiencing extremely painful spasms and an electric shock sensation that made it hurt to talk and difficult to eat. Just trying to brush my teeth would set off spasms of pain. I also had pain in my neck that I hadn’t realized was related. I had panoramic x-rays and brain & inner auditory canal MRIs done. I was diagnosed with Trigeminal Neuralgia and prescribed medication. When I told my neurologist that the pain also seemed to be affecting my jaw, he referred me to Dr. Klein. I am so thankful he did. I had kept a pain journal and brought it in to my first visit with Dr. Klein, and he actually took the time to read it. After taking x-rays, he told me I had TMJ and explained how it was involved with my pain. I was given an orthotic appliance to wear and he taught me a facial stretching/massage technique. I had some improvement almost immediately. After several months of wearing the painless orthotic, I am finally pain-free and no longer taking any medications for pain. Dr. Klein and his staff are very kind and compassionate. I am very grateful and thankful for all of their help and for giving me my life back!.”

  “I came to see Dr. Richard Klein about three years ago, and I had severe pain in my ears and jaw at that time. Dr. Klein and his staff applied therapy techniques to help relax the muscles around my jaw, and over the following weeks I could feel that the muscles were more relaxed and the pressure in my ear subsided. Dr. Klein also recommended that I wear a mouthpiece at night to stabilize my jaw and keep it in proper alignment. Now in November of 2012, I’m doing great. I am no longer experiencing any pain in my jaw and ear, and only need my mouthpiece checked about four times a year. I recommend that anyone who has TMJ problems consult with Dr. Klein and his wonderful staff.”

  “The doctor and staff here are very understanding and so friendly. They were very helpful in diagnosing and treating my condition. I would recommend this office to anyone with similar problems. Thank you, Dr. Klein, for all your help.”

  “I have been a patient of Dr. Klein’s for the past five years. I went to Dr. Klein with a long list of symptoms ranging from jaw pain, sensitivity to light, to brain fog. I originally learned about Michigan Head & Neck Institute from my local dentist of 30 years, who was not able to help with my severe TMD [Temporomandibular Joint Disorder]. So, my dentist referred me to the best doctor her knew in Michigan.I remember my first appointment, and I had thought Dr. Klein would be just “another doctor” but I was so wrong. Dr. Klein never made any false promises, and said it would be a gradual process, and would take some effort on my part to get my condition under control. The staff at Dr. Klein’s office is top-notch. They are very empathetic to your condition, and when it’s time to see Dr. Klein you feel very comfortable and he focuses directly on you and your condition. To the person reading this: pick up the phone and make that appointment because it will be the best thing you can do for yourself. Thank you Dr. Klein and staff, you’re simply the best and you have helped me enjoy life again!.”

  “I had serious TMJ problems. I had gone through surgery, but was still not getting any better. I started to see Dr. Klein in December 2011. At that time I had swelling in my jaw and could not eat. Since seeing Dr. Klein, the pain and swelling are gone and I can easily eat and even yawn! If you have any jaw problems, go see Dr. Klein. I highly recommend him.”

He is very knowledgeable, and has a friendly staff. If you are suffering from TMJ, don’t hesitate – go see Dr. Klein because he can make you feel better.”
